world radio day + Peter Gabriel bday

|Tue 13 Feb 2024 @10:24| – listening to good soul John note that today is int’l radio day – cool.
I was on the radio once…
story time!

|Fri 12 Apr 2024 @12:33| – erm, I wonder what story I was gonna go with?

For quite some time a long time ago almost anytime I was speaking people noted that I sounded like a DJ. I was always pleased to hear that – took it as a compliment. Recall poking my nose into the San Jose rock station to see if / how to get on the air – think I set my Ninja down on the helmet also – alas.

Columbia school of broadcasting was mentioned, also read a lot. All good suggestions, so I sat on that for another 3 lifetimes (PHX, KNO, DC, LA!) and finally took a voice over class! Woot! Followed that with another voice over class at Santa Monica College. Somewhere there’s a ‘Purina Puppy Chow’ tape that makes Boo laugh.

Fast forward, um – 2 lives? – and I’m involved with WCOM – a Low Power FM station! Tech Notes – where we talked tech and music. Tried to at least. Had fun. Didn’t understand what I was doing, but was that novel? No. Did play “F#*K George Bush” – so I figure I did as much as I could. Remember Moms calling in on Mother’s Day.

So yeah – I was on the radio once. Story? Just me meandering along the path of ‘being here’ – hope you have a DJ/radio station that makes you happy. If not, may I suggest KEXP out of Seattle?

ciao,
Scott
